Comcast outage across the midwest apparently

its gonna be a long day *sigh*

Comcast please fix your shit so I don't have to explain to another customer that the issue is not on our end

thanks 😩

so the Comcast outage today was related to major fibre cuts?

at least one in North Carolina

"Field Operations dispatched to the estimated failure location and upon arrival was advised by local law enforcement there was a truck that struck a utility pole, which then fell across the street and struck another pole, which then tore down the aerial fiber lines. In addition to the fiber lines being down, live power lines are down as well."
